Where do I even begin? This sweet boy entered the world during a pandemic, and was shortly diagnosed with a reality no parent can bear. But you know what? He. Is. Perfect. I mean, I cried as I drove away perfect. In every since of the word, he has captivated strangers, stole the hearts of […]

This poor mama. She had envisioned a snowy lake maternity session. Yeah, that didn’t happen. Her February day hit 60 degrees in Montana!! We were both shocked, but we couldn’t complain! I loved her reading her questionnaire that I sent before the shoot. She shared that they don’t know the gender of the baby, and […]

Mhm. That’s me on the right. 18. Oofta. What a road ahead I have. After meeting so many 2018 and 2019 seniors this spring, it made me think about how I felt being a senior myself. This post is a letter I wish I could have told myself nearly 14 years ago when I was […]

I shifted my 4-Runner into 4-wheel drive as I turned onto Ali and Brent’s road. The snow was softly falling as my windshield wipers tried to keep up. Snow-covered pine trees and quiet homes with porch lights on lined the country road as I made my way to meet 4-day-old Sawyer. As I drove up […]

Lifestyle family sessions are not your typical family session. They are a much more laid back, go-with-the-flow type of shoot. I LOVE these because the amount of pressure exponentially decreases for both mom and dad–and if I’m being honest–with me too! And the photos reflect that relaxed vibe. This mama and daddy knew that they […]

I knew I wanted to write a blog post about my mom for months, but I just couldn’t bring myself to sit down and drudge up all the emotions that I have so “successfully” suppressed over the past three years. So here we go. Here’s my story. It gets rough (it took me 8 tissues […]

To be clear…this shoot was 34 degrees. In November. In Montana…And this mama-to-be showed up with a smile on her face and was ready to freeeeeeze. Should I add more ee’s on that one? If you were there…you’d agree that word needs at least three more. But can you tell from her beautiful smile? Nope. […]
